Ice cream parlour and coffee/tea shop. Queues at busy times.

Pretty building hidden behind the church in a pretty square

Start and finish, from Alceater town hall

Completed in 1836, Studley Castle is a Grade II listed building set in 28 acres of countryside in Warwickshire. Francis Lyttleton Holyoake, high sheriff of Warwickshire, commissioned knowned theatre architect Samuel Beazley to design the castle in Gothic Revival style.

Henley-in-Arden's name is a reference to the former Forest of Arden, which once covered this area. The town is home to a variety of historic buildings, including some dating back to medieval times, and a wide variety of examples of different architectural styles. The famous mile-long High Street is a conservation area.

Beautiful bridge and weir in village of Wootton Wawen. The aqueduct just to the east is well worth a visit, too.

Monarch's Way (very) long distance footpath runs through these woods near Wooton Wawen. Rough paths, often muddy even in the driest weather. An off road challenge!

At the top of the hill, in the corner of the wood, there's a round flat spot raised up slightly from the surrounding earth. On old maps, this spit is marked as being a windmill. Not much left to see now, but a curiosity.

A peaceful place for a walk

Try the rum and raisin

Fine but make sure to wear good footwear

Section of the epic long distance footpath. This tree is maybe old enough to have been here in Cromwell's time? Along this section, the path is paved, with cattlegrids and some gates.

Studley Castle is a Grade II* listed building set in 28 acres of countryside in Warwickshire. The vision of Francis Lyttleton Holyoake, high sheriff of Warwickshire, it was completed in 1836. He had a £120,000 budget - an eye-watering £14.5m today - and enlisted Samuel Beazley, a renowned theatre architect, to design a castle in Gothic Revival style. For the next 70 years, Studley Castle served as an extraordinary family home. Ultimately, though, such decadent living became a price too high to pay and Francis was declared bankrupt. In 1903, Lady Warwick purchased the building and transformed it into the Studley Agricultural College for Women to provide horticultural training to daughters of the gentry. Requisitioned by the government, it became a training camp for the Women’s Land Army during the First and Second World Wars and remained a women’s-only college for the next 60 or so years. In 1969, the building gained its Grade II* listing, and after a time as offices and a conference centre, in 2006 it was converted again, this time into a country house hotel.

Part of the Henley Forest Marathon route. Good paths well marked. Off road shoes needed.

Beautiful SSSI...great access...full of bluebells

Gravel Or Mtb

Often muddy, off road shoes required at all but the driest of times.

Once you reach this point you have been up the steep hill...

Reasonably well maintained path, new signs recently added, making navigation clearer. Low hill crosses path, making this good for moderate hill conditioning. Gets very muddy in winter.
